So, Windows never does what you want it to do, so if it reads your mind, it will do the right thing?

I can imagine the following:

User thinks: "Hmm, I want to delete Windows and reboot into Linux and install that game I wanted to play earlier."
Windows opens Word Clippy says: You want to write a letter to us to tell us how wonderful Windows is.
Clippy writes: "Windows Mind Reader is wonderful."
Clippy says: To install new software, you need to pay Â£399 for a new copy of Windows Installer. (New license required).
Clippy says: Program "Linux" is incompatible with Windows.
Clippy says: I don't know what "that game I wanted to play earlier" is.
User thinks: "Fromat Windows C:\ drive!"
Clippy says: Cannot reformat hard drive - Windows installed.
User thinks: "SWITCH OFF MIND READER!!!"
Clippy says: Windows Mind Reader is an integral and critical part of Windows. You cannot remove it.
User flicks power switch OFF.

User thinks: "Hmm, I want to delete Windows and reboot into Linux and install that game I wanted to play earlier."
Windows has detected an error in the user. If you want Windows to try to recover the user, press enter. Otherwise Windows will restart the user.

Google does have some links that use 'Crell', but it looks like a later corruption used in 'Deep Space Nine'. Which, while very good in it self, it does break some of the original star trek conventions, so i'll go with the wiki usage.

Also, considering that MS have been trying to use mind control for some time, i would be a bit suspicouse of it being offered as a direct user tool from them with out some covert angle involved..

Alas, the poor Krell
